19-year-old Palestinian Wasim Nasser Khalifa, a resident of Nablus’s Balata refugee camp, was shot twice in the upper chest, including one shot that penetrated his heart, by Israeli gunfire; he was rushed to a hospital where he was pronounced dead minutes later.
On Wednesday night, large numbers of Israeli occupation forces raided the eastern area of Nablus city, including the area of Joseph’s tomb, Balata refugee camp, and Askar refugee camp, to clear the way for settlers to break into Joseph’s tomb.
When settlers stormed the area, Palestinian residents decided to confront and protest the occupation forces and settlers’ raid. However, Israeli forces brutally attacked them and fired live bullets, sound bombs and gas canisters, injuring at least 31 Palestinians, two of them severely, and killing Khalifa, the Palestinian Red Crescent confirmed.

Nearly half of the journalists killed in 2025 died in Israeli attacks on Gaza, RSF says, warning of a global spike in targeted violence against the press.
The Office said about 386 civilians have been killed and 980 others injured in the violations, with children, women and the elderly accounting for the majority of the victims.
